In this story, God goes on a journey toward acceptance of an imperfect relationship with his imperfect creatures, because God refuses to give up on his creatures and his creation.

    Bad News and Good News
    Sep 7 2025
    After a few chapters of God's creation being "very good," in chapter 3 of Genesis things take a turn for the worse. Adam and Eve sin against God and as a result, everything is broken. This is the tragic event known as "the Fall of man." However, chapter 3 of Genesis is not all bad news. After mankind sins against God, we do see some good news from a good God who doesn't leave us and has a plan for our redemption.

    God creates the world in freedom and out of and for delight; this is the deepest truth of the creation story. Believing this truth creates people who understand life is a party and not a catastrophe, people who find truth, beauty, and goodness more interesting than tragedy, trauma, and melodrama.

    Mind and Spirit
    Jul 27 2025
    The early church was a charismatic community in which miraculous eruptions of the Spirit were somewhat normal, and were often channeled through people gifted to channel such gifts.
